ITV The Big Shot

I see ITV News are running the 50 Top Images in History.

We have the Berlin wall coming down, Mandela getting released, man landing on the moon, that little burned girl in Vietnam, Bobby Moore lifting the WC, the Ethiopian famine and other majoe moments from history, and then .....
..... Kelly Holmes crossing the line to win Olympic gold. I MEAN COME ON !! HOW SAD IS THAT?

Just another example of the dumbing down of TV, and news in particular.

Is it the top 50 Images or the Top Image of the last 50 years?

I wouldn't be surprised if ITV pick things like the plane crash at Emmerdale and Ernie Bishop being shot in Coronation Street

Garrett,

From what I remember I don't think no. of years comes into it. They are showing 50 images and you have to vote on the best.

I'd rather see the Football/Rugby World Cup Victories.
